U.S. At War: Limiteds Limited

That great symbol of American speed, the crack passenger train, will
soon be slowed for the duration. Last week Eastern railroad executives
began working out slower passenger and freight schedules that will: 1)
save wear & tear; 2) enable heavier loadings; 3) allow for
interruptions due to heavy war traffic. But most passengers will find
the difference academic, for few high-speed trains have been able to
live up to their timetables since the congestion began. Said one
railway officer: "In some cases it will merely mean that the trains
will now be on time."
